CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota, 58, signed off from her final broadcast with the network on Sunday after more than a decade on air and just five months after she lost her husband to pancreatic cancer.
In an emotional farewell, Camerota reflected on her remarkable journey with the channel which she said had included ‘interviews with presidents, heroes, and extraordinary individuals’.
Camerota said experiencing such moments while working for CNN had been the culmination of her lifelong dreams in journalism.
‘The journalists at CNN are the very best in the business,’ Camerota told viewers as she expressed her deep gratitude for the opportunities and camaraderie she experienced at the network.
